Hello,
I would like to put a line (not [underbared]) under the header and above
the footer. The line shouldn't be to thin (not so thin as \hairline) and it
would be nice, if I could have a coloured line (grey, red, whatever). A
small example, so something like this (best view with non proportional
font):
header pagenumber
-------------------------------------------
text text text text text text text text
text text text text text text text
text text text text text text text
-----------------------------------------
footer footer
Thanks for any help,
best wishes,
Helmut

In ConTeXt it's useful if you can think around some edges:
Such a line is a frame with only one frame line.
This "frame" forms the background of your header.
Ergo:
\setupbackgrounds [header][text][frame=off, bottomframe=on]
\setupbackgrounds [footer][text][frame=off, topframe=on]

I was going to ask exactly the same question. Unluckily, what you
did here does not work very well for me - the line is quite below
the header text, I would really like to have it closer...
\setupheader[after={\hairline}] does not work as the hairline
is not below the text but starts at the left border...
Maybe someone got another idea?
Greetings,

Try to decrease your header height, the header background box
will follow and probably the line gets closer to the text.
(\setuplayout[...])
BTW: Hairlines work on lowres output devices (600 dpi laser
printer), but will disappear on an offset plate. Only as a
hint if someone wants to get his/her books printed.
Why? -- Hairlines are one pixel thick, and one pixel is
invisible if your output device has got about 2450 dpi.

\startuniqueMPgraphic{nice}
draw bottomboundary OverlayBox
leftenlarged 6pt rightenlarged 6pt
shifted (0,.75HeaderHeight) ;
setbounds currentpicture to OverlayBox ; % forces dimensions
\stopuniqueMPgraphic
\defineoverlay[nice][\uniqueMPgraphic{nice}]
\setupbackgrounds[header][text][background=nice]
\starttext
\input ward
\stoptext
I added a couple of shifts and enlargements to play with
